Hope that thing has snow tires on it :lol1Hi Easy
I’m very Jealous of the 53
Whats the plan for it any thing special?Whats the story on the 41? Ford Sedan in the back ground?
Got one of those stuck in my paint booth now, It seams my Body man/Painter/Mechanic broke his arm and will be out for a little longer.I see your using Photo bucket to host your pictures to very smart!
They are very user friendly I think.
That is after you master saving your pics form your camera on your to your PC
and then BE able to find them on your PC
when your ready to upload them on there web sight thats a B isn’t it?Oh the joys of learning computers but they are pretty cool and easy after you nail down some basic stuff.
I can live without a TV and a phone but there’s no way I could live with out a PC not now.Don’t even ask me how to navigate your files there if you create Albums.
Tried it once didnt like it There supposed to be easy to file and manage but…I have almost 500 pics there now and there starting to be a pain to find when I want,
Look through page after page Maybe I will start using the feature.December 21, 2009 at 12:18 am #18108[b]Easy wrote:[/b]
[quote]Yea Bondo,Believe it or not I did.Only took half a day to do it and get it on site.Then I put it in the wroung place I was tring to hook it up to the first site.Just anothere screw-up[/quote]
maybey i will give ya a holler later an see if i can speed the whole proccess up for ya some 😉Hi Dennis. Yea its a 41 2dr sedan like yours,not near as good shape to start with.When I took running broads and fenders off lots of rust.Was just going to flat black it and drive it and one thing lead to another.Like yours it still has the flat head motor.I need to get back to it,got a drop axle I needs to install just got to get my lazy butt to it :whistle:
Easy
Do you follow each build with pics as you go start to finish for the owners? or your self?I like to take pics of every thing start to finish but sometimes more often than I like I forget to grab the camera and get to lazy to go back to the house to grab it and just keep going.
It would be cool to see the suspension mods you did to the 53. Did you raise the floor on it to drop it that low? or is it all in the Bags?
My 41 had very little rust and I need very few parts for it as well.
The car was in very good condition before I started. Im just repainting it no mods just stock with the old stock Flat head.When your building a Bagged suspension do you use a Chassis jig?
Hi Dennis,on the pics I don’t do to good, a lots of times the customers stop by and take there own.I do have pics of the frame and the car on the rotisserie fixing the rust and ect.But they are the regular pics.I need to get them on computer witched might take awhile.As far as the air bags go, no jig was use and did not raise floor in it.If did again would step rear frame up a little, to get rear a little lower.
